Care Quality Commission’s Declare Your Care Campaign
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is encouraging people with a learning disability, their parents, carers and advocates to feedback to them about their care.
Findings
Research by the CQC reveals that people with a learning disability are more likely to regret not complaining about poor care than those without.
The lack of information about a health condition or treatment options not being well explained, are the main reasons for people with a learning disability or their carer to want to raise a concern.
People with learning disabilities are also twice as likely to have concerns about maternity services and mental health services than people without a learning disability.
Have Your Say
If you have a learning disability, or are the parent, carer or advocate of someone who has a learning disability you can feedback your views to the CQC.
